It should be planted on loamy soil for best results. It does not re- quire a lot of attention or expense in cultivation. An asparagus bed will develop in a surprisingly short time and will last for several years. VTrwe advise that you plant the rust-resistant varieties known as Washington, for they have proven the most profitable. In fact, the demand for the other varieties is so negligible that we are only grow- ing the Washington strains. They are the best for either home or commercial planting. A well cared for asparagus bed of a few thousand plants can always be depended on to bring you a good return and give you money when you need it during the earlv spring months.
